Absolutely amazing

Alexis and her team was so amazing. I hired her to do my makeup for my wedding. She Took everything into account and was on top of it! From the moment I had my make up trial to the day of wedding. She really understood what my vision was for myself And my bridesmaids. And took the time to get to know me and my bridesmaids.

One of my best decisions as a bride!

From booking to my trial to my wedding day, everything about working with Alexis and her team was AMAZING. Taylor was my hairstylist and Cindee was the makeup artist, and they blew my expectations out of the water. Each of them made me feel so beautiful, took the time to really listen to what I wanted and executed it to a T. I really wanted to look and feel like myself on such a big day and they both made it happen. They also did hair and makeup for my mom, and two sisters and all of them said it was the best experience they've ever had! A huge thank you to all of them for making me look my best!

Taylor was so great!

Taylor did an amazing job styling hair for four of us on my wedding day! She really understood what each of us was looking for and what would look good with our hair types. I chose soft curls and was impressed that they looked soft but also stayed in place the whole night. Taylor was also incredibly friendly and sweet which made the vibes great while getting ready! I would definitely recommend Taylor to any future brides!

Amazing hair and makeup

I am so happy I got my dress at the Persnickety Bride! Denise and her whole team are incredible. Her store is amazing and she only carries the best. Both my sister and I found our dream dresses here. Denise worked with the designer of my dress (Dany Tabet) to get me a custom dress so I could get exactly what I wanted. She even had a trunk show and I was able to meet Dany. Completely a dream come true. I was able to get the dress I envisioned and it was perfect for my wedding day. Can not recommend The Persnickety Bride enough!

Outstanding service!

Taylor and Cindee were absolutely amazing to work with! From the trial to the big day, they both understood the look I was going for and they delivered! My entire bridal party looked absolutely stunning as well! They worked efficiently to stay on schedule but they made sure everyone was comfortable with their look and touched up before they left. Alexis made things so easy to coordinate and set up, overall everyone was a dream to work with!

Stunning bridal party makeup

If I could give Alexis more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. From the very beginning of the booking process she was responsive, professional, and exceptionally kind. On my wedding day, Alexis was so on top of timing that I did not have to stress one bit. And when I tell you that my entire bridal party looked STUNNING, that is not doing the glam justice. I was blown away by how perfect the makeup was and guests were complimenting it all night long. Not only did the makeup look perfect, it lasted all night without budging. Alexis also provided makeup services for my mother and mother-in-law who are not big glam ladies, and she made them feel super comfortable and at ease. I cannot say enough good things about Alexis and would recommend her to any bride considering her services! Thank you for making my whole squad look and feel their best for my wedding day!

Alexis was amazing!

I'm so glad I booked Alexis to do my hair and makeup. At the trial a few months before, I showed her pictures and details of how I wanted to look. She was able to replicate both my hair and make up to look amazing. The day of my wedding she came to my venue on time and was excited to work with me and my 4 girls. She took her time and was attentive to make sure we looked good and to touch up if we needed it. I felt so beautiful that day and would 100% recommend her to anyone in the CT area who wants to feel relaxed and gorgeous on her wedding day!!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Alexis was amazing! She exceeded all my expectations for my wedding hair. It was perfect, just like I had imagined. Leading up to the wedding, we had a hair trial where she gave recommendations on what hair extensions to use and styled my hair a couple different ways to have options to look back on. She went out of her way to make me an appointment at her salon with her where she color matched my hair to the extensions, and even gave me the cutest curtain bangs. Her talent is unmatched, and she was so kind and communicative throughout the process. While doing the wedding party’s hair she listened to exactly what they wanted and everyone’s hair looked beautiful and stayed the whole day. Not to mention she lended a bottle of hairspray for one of the groomsmen to use. I couldn’t be happier with her services. Very highly recommend!

Can’t recommend Alexis enough!

Alexis was so good wonderful to work with. Not only is she so sweet but also incredibly talented. She was able to pivot from my trial on the day of my wedding when I changed my mind about my hair. She made me and everyone in my wedding feel and look amazing. Finding the right hair and makeup for your wedding day is a huge deal- I have had many bad experiences as a bridesmaid, and I’m so glad I chose Alexis for my own day because it could not have gone better!
